Methods

The methods for calculating data inventory metrics and generating composite scores are identical to those used in the first Blue Carbon Data Inventory Report. The figure from the original analysis has been revised to reflect the updates that were applied to existing datasets. See documentation from CCN Database Version 1.1.0 for full list of updates. All analyses were run using the most current version of the CCN database (V1.1.0). In order to recalculate the metrics from the initial inventory, this dataset was filtered to only include the data which were present in the previous database version (V1.0.0).

Data Inventory Change

To demonstrate the change between the initial and second data inventory, the difference in score was calculated for each of the four metrics (quality, quantity, habitat coverage, and spatial coverage).
